Index – Abroad – US Special Representative for Haiti resigns over mass deportations

The US special envoy to Haiti has resigned, criticizing Washington’s leadership for his Haitian leadership hundreds of immigrants MTI reports that he was sent back to a Caribbean nation that has been hit by disasters and political insecurity in recent days.

I do not want to be associated with the inhuman and counterproductive decision of the United States to deport thousands of Haitian refugees.

Daniel Foot, who was appointed in July, wrote in a letter to US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken.

According to Foote, the situation in Haiti is so appalling that the movement of US officials is virtually limited to the complexes of buildings guarded by armed groups operating in the country. As he wrote, Haiti is a “collapsed country.”

Our policy on Haiti has serious shortcomings, and my proposals have been ignored, ignored, or reformulated to make a vision alien to me.

Bigfoot resented.

The deportations began on Sunday and there were seven flights a day to Haiti.

Filippo Grandi, the UN High Commissioner for Refugees, recently warned that deportations could violate international law.

Haiti has been hit several times recently. Haitian President Jovenel Moise was assassinated on July 7, then assassinated for the first time in August with a force of 7.2 men. EarthquakeThen a tropical storm hit the Caribbean island nation.
